I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Wow. Benno's birthday AGAIN?

Happy Birthday, little guy!

Wow. Benno's birthday AGAIN?

You're telling me....

Thank you everyone! I think he had a pretty good day, despite it being a school day. Nice pressies, a good time with some friends and some sledging in the afternoon: what more could a seven-year-old boy want? Party is tomorrow afternoon, so there's still that to look forward to.

He's becoming so grown-up, it's quite scary.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

SEVEN? What is this crazy talk?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Happy Birthday, Benno!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Happy birthday, Benno!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Seven? Wow. Happy Birthday, Benno!
